Nichols (AIM:NICL)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Nichols plc, with a market cap of £391.29 million, supplies soft drinks to the retail, wholesale, catering, licensed, and leisure industries across the United Kingdom, the Middle East, Africa, and internationally.

Dividend Yield: 14.0%

Lancashire Holdings' dividend yield is among the highest in the UK, yet its dividends have been volatile and unreliable over the past decade. Despite a reduced net income of US$109.2 million for H1 2025, dividends are well-covered by earnings with a payout ratio of 23.6% and cash flows at 75.3%.
